A research team from the University of Klagenfurt is collaborating with industry partner AIR6 SYSTEMS on the FFG-funded DORBINE project to create a novel technology that employs artificial intelligence to manage swarms of drones that monitor wind turbines while in operation. Traditionally, to check wind turbines for damage, they must be turned off. This indicates that [...]
Cygnus Instruments was born in the marine industry, working alongside ship surveyors and commercial divers to this day. Four decades on, this knowledge of the industry and its challenges is second to none. Cygnus is now the world-renowned maker of easy-to-use, highly accurate ultrasonic testing (UT) equipment for corrosion inspection, flooded member detection, and leak detection [...]

Fiberscope.net has added a motorized reel cable box option to the STRAHL HD Well Camera, making well and borehole inspections easier and more efficient. This upgrade removes the need for manual winching, allowing operators to raise and lower the camera with less effort. The motorized winch and 200-meter reinforced cable give operators better control over camera [...]
X-ray nondestructive testing technology is widely used for inspecting welds and identifying defects, and is crucial in the manufacturing industry. However, the diversity of welding defects and the imbalanced defect samples reduce defect classification model accuracy and can cause classifier overfitting. This paper proposes an improved DCGAN model for generating welding defect samples by integrating deep [...]

A Klaveness Combination Carrier departs from New York, heading for the Bahamas. While the ship is in transit at sea, an advanced robotic system is at work inside one of its cargo tanks. Deep within the steel confines of the vessel, the Scout 137 Drone System carries out a fully automated cargo tank inspection, executing an [...]
All-Solution-Processable Hybrid Photothermoelectric Sensors with Carbon Nanotube Absorbers and Bismuth Composite Electrodes for Nondestructive Testing While photothermoelectric (PTE) sensor sheets are potentially suitable for testing applications, such as nondestructive material identifications in ultrabroad millimeter-wave infrared bands, their device designs have primarily employed a single-material channel. Herein, PTE sensor sheets generally combine photoinduced heating with associated thermoel [...]
